I got it. :)
How did u get it?
According to the binomial theorem, the term with x^2 would be the third term. I plugged my known values into the "formula" for the third term, and made it equal to 5. Then I solved for a. Sorry, my explanation is kind of vague.
Cool, I appreciate you responding to my question.
